Hi,

Just change the database settings in the applicationContext.xml file of the Activiti Explorer.

Best regards,

Hi,

It would be good to upgrade to Activiti 5.7 then 😉
If you want to keep using Activiti 5.5 you'll also have to deploy the activiti-rest application.
The Activiti Explorer 5.5 makes use of the Activiti REST application to access the database.
To change the DB settings to MySQL you'll have to change the XMl file in the activiti-cfg.jar (in the activiti-test/WEB-INF/lib dir).

Best regards,
